Random facts about today:

It was my last full day of high school.

I did eenie meenie miniemo on my Environ. sys. final.

I wished I was knee deep in the ocean the whole time.

I lost the belt to this skirt.

This belt goes with my trench coat.

And this purse was found in my closet after an afternoon of shopping for a new purse.

This is also my neon nuetral outfit. Check out the other bright ladies HERE

If I could wish upon a star I would hitch a cable car.

I got this hat at a winery outside of San Francisco when I went right around this time last year. and something about jamming to thing song has me DIEING to go back.

And while you listen, enjoy some pictures from my trip...

{fitpost} the early reveal.

Okay, were not going to list the workouts because I cant remember what exact thing I did each exact day... I took Thursday off. and on Monday I took a Barre ballet class and a Latin Fever dance class. Super fun.

I have been tackling some of the things that scare me at the gym. like the stair master. I get visions of the road runner and my legs moving faster than they ever have before. and the big boy free weights. I feel so much more accomplished when it is all over, even if I may have lifted more taking off the weights from the builder before me.

Anyway, I had a grad party on the lake today. That's right Lady's.SWIMSUIT TIME. I was stressing. But I went out and got a swim suit I LOVE. I kept thinking its not time yet. Give me a couple more months for my big reveal. but I just had to throw off the cover up and hope everyone else was as occupied with their thighs as I was. Turns out I had a TON of fun and would have missed out on so much if my insecurities would have held me at bay. Ha. OH and you should have seen the shorts I wore. I bought them at the beginning of the summer and I literally had to hold them up they were so loose with the water weight. :)

But here's the links that I loved this week!

• Fitsugar shows us 100 calorie servings of fruit
• Self teaches us how to make the healthy habits stick. I really agree with the last one. read in a magazine we should treat healthy eating as part of our beauty routine like washing our face, done all the time, not done until its fixed.
• My Fitness Pal app has been wonderful for counting calories and carbs and everything. It even let me count treading water while at the lake today.
• Jillian of Biggest Loser fame also has a workout app.
• are you falling for these tricky diet foods?

Teatime and Sunshine

This was worn to a graduation tea for a good friend of mine who designs clothes for Urban Outfitters. So I had extra pressure to dress cute. I am a tea fan. Not the drink( I know, I suck as a southerner), the party. Good food in mini portions didn't blow the healthy eating I have been doing.

I would keep on confessing my love for tea, hello cute dresses, but alas the partying has not stopped.

still have 2 more stops tonight and a boat party and an afternoon barbecue tomorrow!

Did I mention that we will be the last high school in the state of Texas to graduate. This last week will really be a pain in my eye.

Getting HOTHOTHOT

Dress: H&M

Cardigan:Express

Shoes:target

Necklace:XXI

Ill be honest. This location was risky. It was windy. Not only was it very likely that my auto timer get a "I see London" shot in this flowy dress, but also at one point I had to run to save the whole tripod from blowing over. I couldn't help it though. The breeze felt SO good. Our senior class is taking an outdoor trip tommorrow and it is supposed to be in the triple digits. I can feel the sticky now. eck.

The Memorial Day Miracle.

Tank and jeans: Old Navy

Okay. The title may or may not have been a little bit of a hyperbole. but really. I had seen the ads for the memorial day sales but I mean it isn't black Friday so walking into the mall Monday morning I had no idea the savings I was in store for. Get it. in store for. This cardigan is one of them. It is from LOFT, a store which I have never bought anything full price from ever. Matter of fact. Everything I own from there is like ridiculously reduced clearance. This cardigan which will be worn year round came out to less than $7!

So ANYWAY

LOFT had 50% off already reduced clearance.

Gap had 40% off all women's- cant wait to show you the shirt I got for $3.98!

and to think. I could be on some lake being sunburned right now.

 Okay so here's the deal. Lately I have really trying to get into gear as far as eating healthy and working out. and so far so good, if you call far a week. But knowing myself, my problems will arise when I have no one to hold me accountable. and that's where you guys come in.

Once a week I will be publishing a post with a title that starts with [fitpost],as does this one, that has my routine for the past week plus interesting articles and recipes and things I have found on the Internets.I know one thing that keeps me dressing cute is the fact that I know I have a blog to maintain. I have no idea if yall will even be reading these fitposts but the fact that I have put it out there now will hopefully hold me to it.  I was thinking about posting  a before picture this first week but I am a spoonful too prideful for that.

So here we go

My routine this week:

M: uphill climb for 45 minutes on the treadmill

T: abs and legs

W:HIIT and arms

T:Rest,sick

F: 1.5 hour Trampoline workout

S: Walked around Byron Nelson golf tourny in hothothot sun( I know this isn't really a workout but it wore me out)
